\u201cIt was an exciting day for us,\u201d Head Coach Nicole Hollingsworth said. \u201cWe put together three good scores as a team, but I think the key for us was [Monday\u2019s] second round giving us a big cushion going into today. I\u2019m very proud of the way Manisa, Sathika and Morgan played the entire tournament, and we need to carry that momentum into our final two tournaments of the fall.\u201d<\/p>\n

A pair of freshmen, Pimchanok Kawil (76-76-76=228) and Catriona Griffin (80-75-77=232), rounded out the Rockets\u2019 lineup in sixth and 12th place, respectively.<\/p>\n
